Panel Descriptions
3. VOLUME Knob
This adjusts the volume of the device 
connected to the Keyboard/ Instrument/
Guitar input jack(s).
4. CHORUS Switch
Pressing the CHORUS switch will turn on the 
chorus effect.
The MOBILE CUBE’s chorus effect is 
a spatially synthesized chorus that takes 
advantage of stereo playback to generate 
an expansive sensation.
What’s spatially synthesized chorus
With spatially synthesized chorus, 
a method available only in stereo, the 
chorus effect is created by taking the 
sound from the right speaker (from which 
the effect sound is output), and the sound 
from the left speaker (which outputs the 
direct sound), and then mixing them in the 
actual space. This creates a greater lateral 
spread than that produced when the 
sounds are mixed electronically, 
providing a more natural sense of breadth.

5. CENTER CANCEL Switch
Pressing the CENTER CANCEL switch will 
eliminate sounds (such as vocals or guitar 
solos) located in the center of the stereo 
source from the music CD or other device 
connected to AUX IN. This is convenient 
when you want to use the source for karaoke 
or for guitar practice.
*
For some stereo sources, it may not be possible to obtain 
a sufficient cancellation effect.
TONE and DELAY/REVERB
*
The effect applies only to the device connected to MIC and 
to the KEYBOARD/ INSTRUMENT/ GUITAR input 
jacks.
6. TONE Knob
This adjusts the tone. Turn the knob 
clockwise for a brighter tone; to get a milder 
tone, turn the knob counterclockwise.
7. DELAY/REVERB Knob
Turn this knob to DELAY or REVERB to 
switch to that effect. Turn the knob to adjust 
the amount of effect applied.
DELAY
Turn the knob to change the time and amount 
of delay effects.
What’s DELAY
A delay is a little bit like an echo, and by 
repeating the original sound after it is played, 
this effect can add a sense of spaciousness 
and depth to the sound. In addition, when 
this effect is applied to instruments that play 
melodies, it can make their performance 
sound smoother or can add an extra bounce 
to their rhythm.
REVERB (Stereo REVERB)
Spacious-sounding stereo reverb is provided. 
Turn the knob to adjust the reverb level.
What’s REVERB 
By adding reverberation to a sound, this 
effect imbues the sound with a sense of 
spaciousness and depth.
8. Power Indicator
This indicator lights when the unit is turned on.
*
When operating on battery power only, the unit’s indicator 
will become dim during play when battery power gets too 
low.
*
Sounds may distort easily or may cut off when played at 
high volume as the battery power begins to fade, but this is 
normal and does not indicate a malfunction.
In such instances, either replace the batteries or use the AC 
adaptor (sold separately).
